行业洞察 | 盘点2022年业内顶级无人机服务供应商

近期，DRONEII评选了本年度顶级无人机服务供应商。

In the near future，Drone Industry Insight（DRONII）has named this year's top drone service providers.

获奖者分为两个类型。来自DRONEII的Estaban Zanelli表示，“对世界最佳无人机服务公司进行排名，决定公司表现力的参考因素为规模、发展和公众影响力。排名分别为遥感无人机前五名和无人机配送前五名。”

Winners were divided into two categories.  “…to rank the best drone service companies in the world, we used the size, growth and public attention as reference to determine companies’ performance,” writes DRONEII’s Estaban Zanelli.  “The ranking is split into the 5 best remote sensing companies and the 5 best companies for drone delivery.”

美国位居送货无人机前列，其医疗配送无人机公司Zipline居送货无人机排名首位，而遥感首位是马来西亚的Aerodyne集团。

The U.S took the top spots in delivery, with medical drone delivery companyZipline landing the number 1 spot for drone delivery. Malaysia’s Aerodyne Group placing first for remote sensing.

排名洞察:这是一个广泛的领域

Insights from the Listings: It’s a Wide Open Field

完整的报告中列出了两个类型排名前20的无人机服务供应商。商用无人机运营规模在不断扩大，所以无人机服务供应商的重要性也在逐步提高。

The full report lists the top 20 drone service providers in both categories. As commercial drone operations begin to scale, drone service providers take on more importance. 

尽管前20中有八家公司，且排名前三的无人机配送服务供应商都来自美国，Zanelli指出其他国家也提供相关的配送服务。而在遥感方面，该排名列表在全球范围内是十分多样的。“遥感领域前20的无人机公司中，美国仅占据了5个席位。因此尽管整体排名来看美国无人机公司都占大多数，美国在无人机的操作和无人机领域的影响力也并非如其起初呈现得那么大。”

While 8 of the top 20, including the top 3 drone delivery service providers are based in the U.S., Zanelli points out that their primary operations take place in other countries. 

In remote sensing, the list is globally diverse. “…the best companies for remote sensing only feature 5 American companies in the top 20. So despite being a majority in the overall rankings, the role of the US in terms of operation and influence is not as large as it may initially appear.”

除了地理多样性之外，位列前茅的许多无人机服务供应商都是受较大的公司支撑。

In addition to being geographically diverse, few of the companies that made the list of top drone service providers are backed by large corporations.

能源仍然是遥感无人机服务供应商最大的客户来源

Energy is Still the Biggest Customer for Remote Sensing Drone Service Providers 

企业业务不管是无人机运营外包还是建立一个内部的无人机团队都是基于一系列因素。现今无人机服务供应商最大的客户来源是能源。Zanelli表示，“据预计，遥感无人机公司前20名几乎都是优先考虑并且致力于发展能源行业（公用事业）。这不仅在公用事业重要性和资金投入方面是主要行业，它在无人机技术改善效率、安全性和节省时间和资金方面也具有独一无二的积极作用。”

Whether enterprise businesses outsource drone operations or establish an in-house drone team depends upon a number of factors. 

Right now, the biggest customer for DSPs is energy.   “As may be expected, almost all of the top 20 remote sensing companies prioritize and are active in the Energy Industry (utilities). This is not only a major industry in terms of the importance of utilities and the money involved, but also in the way that drone technology provides unique improvements to efficiency, safety and savings of both time and money,” Zanelli writes.
